Holiday apartment for rent in Huercal Overa

There are 2 self contained apartments, one having 2 bedrooms and the other a studio apartment. They both have a mini kitchen with a gas hob, microwave, kettle and a fridge. Crockery, cutlery, pans, bedding, towels and tea towels are all provided as well as tea bags for that all important first cup. The apartments have been recently constructed to a high standard on the first floor of a traditional spanish cortijo.

Casa La Ribera has a small pool and BBQ which are for the use of guests and the owners. This is one of the warmest and driest areas of Spain. The apartments are situated within the small village of Santa Maria de Nieva which has a village shop, pharmacy and bar. The village fiesta is held at the beginning of August.

The town of Huercal Overa is 7 kms away and has shops, several supermarkets and restaurants. A large market takes place on Mondays. The Easter Semana Santa, the Feria in October, the Christmas market and the Three Kings procession on January 5th are tourist attractions.

There are many beaches nearby eg Mojacar, Garrucha and the quieter San Juan de Los Terreros. Many unspoilt beaches can be reached by car. Mini Hollywood, the ceramics and carpets of Nijar, the nature park at Cabo de Gata and the cave houses of Cuevas de Almanzora are well worth a visit. See Palomares which was once at the centre of one of the world’s biggest nuclear scares. Visit the castle in Lorca or the moorish alcazaba in Velez Blanco. A must see are the prehistoric cave paintings, including indalos (matchstick figure with arms outstretched holding an arc, said to ward off evil), of Cuevas de los Letreros near Velez Rubio.

Holiday here or use it as a base when looking for your own ‘place in the sun’.

The owners, Joyce and Alan, live on the premises and will be pleased to give any help in buying a property here or just recommending places to visit.
